Towards a computational model for stimulation of the Pedunculopontine nucleus [PDF]

, 2009
The pedunculopontine nucleus (PPN) has recently been suggested as a new therapeutic target for deep brain stimulation (DBS) in patients suffering from Parkinson's disease, particularly those with severe gait and postural impairment [1].

Value of MRI Outcomes for Preventive and Early‐Stage Trials in Spinocerebellar Ataxias 1 and 3

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To examine the value of MRI outcomes as endpoints for preventive and early‐stage trials of two polyglutamine spinocerebellar ataxias (SCAs). Methods A cohort of 100 participants (23 SCA1, 63 SCA3, median Scale for the Assessment and Rating of Ataxia (SARA) score = 5, 42% preataxic, and 14 gene‐negative controls) was scanned at 3T up ...

Neuronal Pathways and Synaptic Connexions in the Abdominal Cord of the Crayfish [PDF]

, 1959
1. An investigation has been made into the function and distribution of nerve fibres in the abdominal ganglion chain and its roots in the crayfish, Procambarus clarkii, by leading off action potentials from small prepared bundles following sensory ...

Monitoring in a grid cluster [PDF]

, 2014
The monitoring of a grid cluster (or of any piece of reasonably scaled IT infrastructure) is a key element in the robust and consistent running of that site. There are several factors which are important to the selection of a useful monitoring framework,

Fluid Biomarkers of Disease Burden and Cognitive Dysfunction in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Identifying objective biomarkers for progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP) is crucial to improving diagnosis and establishing clinical trial and treatment endpoints. This study evaluated fluid biomarkers in PSP versus controls and their associations with regional 18F‐PI‐2620 tau‐PET, clinical, and cognitive outcomes.

Sympathetic Chain Ganglia in the Female Pig During Prenatal Development: Noradrenergic and Cholinergic Neurons

Current Issues in Molecular Biology
Due to the limited data on chemical coding of sympathetic chain ganglia neurons during the prenatal period, this study, for the first time, aimed to characterise noradrenergic and cholinergic neurotransmitter expression in lumbar sympathetic chain ...

Vertebrate Sensory Ganglia: Common and Divergent Features of the Transcriptional Programs Generating Their Functional Specialization

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Sensory fibers of the peripheral nervous system carry sensation from specific sense structures or use different tissues and organs as receptive fields, and convey this information to the central nervous system.

Histological study of the nervous system of chicken Ascaridia galli (Schrank, 1788) Freeman, 1923 [PDF]

مجلة التربية والعلم, 2009
The histological sections of the nervous system of Ascaridia galli stained with toludine blue, showed that it consists of a nerve ring surrounding the oesophagus known as circumenteric ring which in turn connected with a number of ganglia namely: pair of

Functional and Structural Evidence of Neurofluid Circuit Aberrations in Huntington Disease

Annals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Disrupted neurofluid regulation may contribute to neurodegeneration in Huntington disease (HD). Because neurofluid pathways influence waste clearance, inflammation, and the distribution of central nervous system (CNS)–delivered therapeutics, understanding their dysfunction is increasingly important as targeted treatments emerge.
